Democrat Senator Charged With Acting As A Foreign Agent!


The level of corruption in Washington D.C. is absolutely staggering.

WLTR recently reported on Senator Bob Menendez’s bribery scandal, in which he accepted bars of gold to help a businessman out with pending litigation.

Now, a grand jury has added superseding charges to the indictments against Senator Menendez, accusing him of acting as a foreign agent on behalf of the Egyptian government.

Investigators point to a 2019 meeting between Menendez and Egyptian officials discussing the release of $300 million in military aid for Egypt.

In return for the release of the aid, Egyptian officials reportedly told Menendez that he would receive a generous sum for his efforts.

Techno Fog clarified the charges: “In essence, a US Senator was acting on behalf of Egypt, passing on non-public info and doing favors – for bribes.”

The New York Post had more details:

Shortly after the meeting, which was also attended by Nadine and Hana — the Edgewater, NJ., businessman accused of being a middleman between the Menendez couple and Egyptian officials — the senator searched the web for information about the airstrike and the American’s injuries, court papers say.

A week later, the same Egyptian agent texted Hana that Mendendez “would sit very comfortably” if he helped resolve the matter.

“Consider it done,” Hana replied.

A growing number of Americans and political organizations called for the immediate resignation of Menendez in the face of these new allegations.

CBS News added:

Menendez last month said the cash found by agents during the search of his home was withdrawn from his personal savings account and kept for “emergencies,” as has been his practice for decades.

He also cited “the history of my family facing confiscation in Cuba” to explain why he kept large amounts of cash in his home.
